1. Even my pay-scale has increased from the time I wrote this thread but no LE. Even after writing this thread I sent them salary slip & salary a/c statement (last 3 months)1. Nothing, its just your bad luck (for now). More depends on ur income, profession which haven't shared in this thread. Upgrades/LE not always based on existing relationship or spend pattern, but sometimes depends on income, profession and mostly luck.
2. No, LE or decrease solely banks decision. How much they're willing to lend u that upto them, and RBI can't ask them increase ur limit which might increase credit risk in bank terms.
3. That didn't work.
4. No, he/she might have other job rather worrying about ur account. U can't check but mostly ur not eligible for LE currently.
5. 1L/m Limit is sufficient for 3.5L/y spends, IMO. Btw, its been 3 years I received LE from HDFC, all u have to do wait or move on..
If u don't want to be in patience.. can close all cards and re-apply after 6 months (but u have good cards, not advisable).
As per CIBL, ur total credit limit (as per ur shared data): 19.5L
Now, check ur monthly income and is it how many times extra?
-----------
Tip: U only had 3 years relationship with HDFC and already had LE in last May, thats not 1 year. So, can wait till June end to try ur luck again. Otherwise, sending mails is the only route or deal with your new RM (as per their requirement) for LE -- they can't do mostly anything when it comes to LE but can help u upgrade and get higher limit, depends on their satisfaction.
5. I agree that the limit is still decent but I want to UP the game & often times high ticket items, which have HDFC instant card disc. can't be bought with this card because of my limit. You didn't receive a LE as well for the past 3 years....hmmm. Would you mind roughly sharing your credit limit?
Look I don't want to actually close and then apply these cards, because it's a lot of work, unless this is the only way..... because I have LTF Swiggy (still a good card) & millennia. What if I apply next time and they give me moneyback instead of millennia?
As per my CIBIL, my total updated credit limit is 15.01L (because I have put ICICI cards @ 80k per card through iMobile App) which is almost 10 times my monthly income.
Now it's over 1 yr 6 months since I last received my LE; RM asks 50L IP for a Specialé Gold / Specialé Platinum A/c for my mother. Also named some 1.5L/Yr ULIPs/Endowment Plans/Guaranteed Return Plans. Tomorrow he might even ask me to transfer all my properties to him.
